Race Week, Festival Week, Event Nights
Dining Options for Doncaster Race Days and St Leger Festival
A good portion of our visitor trade comes through the events calendar. Race meetings throughout the flat season, St Leger Festival in September, the Christmas Market in late autumn, summer events around town - hotels in Doncaster fill up around these weeks, and an independent restaurant on Copley Road becomes a useful alternative to the hotel restaurants and the chain pubs. The full Visit Doncaster calendar covers the events worth planning a stay around.
If you are in town for the races, our Thai restaurant for Doncaster Races page covers the timing in more detail. For other annual events across the year, the annual events dining page is a better starting point.
The booking advice is the same either way: phone ahead. Event-week Saturdays book out and St Leger week books out months in advance.

Why Choose Our Independent Thai Kitchen Over a Hotel Restaurant
Hotel restaurants do a job, but if you have travelled for work, an event or a weekend away, eating the same buffet two nights running gets old fast. Charm Thai is the alternative within easy reach: a proper independent Thai kitchen run by a chef with over ten years of cooking experience across South Yorkshire. Copley Road offers a quieter alternative to the busier restaurant areas, and advance booking is recommended.
Walk Over or Order In
Most town-centre hotels are a walkable distance away. Hotels further out get delivery within the eight-mile zone for a flat £2 fee.
Open Until 9pm
Mon, Wed-Sat 12-9pm. For a later arrival, check the opening hours and phone ahead so the team can confirm a suitable dining or collection time. Closed Tue and Sun.
BYO, No Corkage, No Service Charge
Bring wine, beer or fizz from anywhere in town. No corkage on your own bottle, no service charge added when the bill comes - what's on the menu is what you pay. Useful if hotel bar prices feel steep. See BYO details.
Booking tip: When you phone, tell us which hotel you are staying at. It helps us plan the timing if you are walking over after a long day or if you want delivery to coincide with a meeting finishing. Book a table by phone on 01302 210408. If you are staying nearby because of a hospital visit rather than an event or work trip, the near Doncaster Royal Infirmary page covers the walk and delivery to the DRI specifically. Arriving by rail and checking in straight from the platform? The near Doncaster train station page covers that walk and timing instead.
